What’s The Connection Between Soils & Climate Change?
- •The UN FAO warned five years ago that human pressures, primarily from agriculture, are intensifying on land, soils, and fresh water systems, pushing them to their productive limits.
- •This trend signals increasing competition for land and water resources, potentially raising costs and complexities for siting new energy projects (e.g., solar, wind) and impacting water-intensive thermal generation.
- •The connection between soil health and climate change implies future policy and regulatory focus on land use, carbon sequestration, and water management, which could influence carbon markets and environmental permitting for energy infrastructure.
